We are proud to announce the next, major release of the
GNU Compiler Collection.
If you want to boost your software with a fresh new compiler,
with new language features, various new optimizations,
improvements to old optimizations, GCC 9.1 is here for you!
GCC 9.1 is a major release containing substantial new
functionality not available in GCC 8.x or previous GCC releases.
In this release C++17 support is no longer marked experimental. The
C++ front-end implements the full C++17 language (already previous GCC
major version implemented that) and the C++ standard library support is
almost complete. The C++ front-end and library also have numerous further
C++2a draft features [1]. GCC has a new front-end for the D language.
GCC 9.1 has newly partial OpenMP 5.0 support and almost
complete OpenACC 2.5 support.
On the optimization side, the link time and inter-procedural optimizations
have been made more scalable [2].
There have been various usability improvements in GCC diagnostics and GCC 9.1
features various new warnings [3].
Some code that compiled successfully with older GCC versions might require
source changes, see http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/porting_to.html for
details.
